Types of Hyperpigmentation
Sunspots or Lentigines
Aging and prolonged sun exposure contribute to the development of lentigines, commonly known as age spots, appearing as small, dark spots on the skin. They commonly emerge on sun-exposed areas like the face, hands, and shoulders.
Melasma
Hormonal fluctuations during pregnancy or due to contraceptive use often result in melasma. Unlike sunspots, melasma manifests as larger patches primarily on the face.
Post-inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH)
It is caused by skin trauma or inflammation, such as acne, cuts, or burns. These areas tend to darken compared to the surrounding skin.
Dark Spots from Trauma
Physical trauma, including wounds or surgeries, can lead to dark spots as a result of the skin's healing process.
Drug-Induced Hyperpigmentation
Certain medications, like specific antibiotics, antimalarials, or chemotherapy drugs, may induce hyperpigmentation as a side effect, causing the skin to darken in patches or spots.

Hyperpigmentation Treatments
Laser Therapy
Lasers use focused light energy to break down excess pigment in the skin, targeting specific areas and promoting even-toned skin regeneration.
Topical Treatment
Common ingredients used are hydroquinone, kojic acid, azelaic acid, retinoids (such as tretinoin), vitamin C, licorice extract, niacinamide, and alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) like glycolic acid.
Chemical Peels
Chemical peels delicately remove the surface layers of the skin, catalyzing the emergence of fresh, revitalized skin cells with reduced pigmentation.
RF Microneedling
Through controlled radiofrequency energy and micro-injuries, it encourages the skin to regenerate, reducing hyperpigmentation and promoting a more even skin tone.
